The incidence of treatment failure in community acquired pneumonia (CAP) can range up to 31%. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of this kind of disease remain a great challenge to CAP. For this reason, several stud-ies have attempted to establish risk factors and new strategies for the treatment of non-responding pneumonia. This article re-views the progress of the pathogeny and treatment of non-responding CAP.
